Gotcha.

That 'built-in' facility is deprecated and hasn't been actively developed for 
years.  I'd strongly recommend moving to the Rivendell Loadable Module (RLM) 
facility.  This is much more powerful in that plug-ins can be developed to 
interface to just about any device out there.  A basic set of plug-ins come 
with the system, including one called 'rlm-udp' that can be used to send 
updates via UDP to an arbitrary number of destinations.  You configure it in 
RDAdmin->ManageHosts->RDAirPlay->Configure Now&Next, in the 'Loadable Modules' 
section.  The 'Argument' parameter should be the path to the plug-in's 
configuration file.  A heavily commented example configuration can be found in 
the 'rlm_udp.conf' file, shipped with the Rivendell sources.  You can also 
develop your own plug-ins; see 'lib/rlm.h' in the Rivendell sources for details.

Cheers!
